Lesions may be intra or extra axial within the anatomical confines of the temporal lobe. Both of neocortical and mesial temporal lobe.60 Case No 1 45yrs old right-handed female Onset of epilepsy: 13y.o. Semiology: Automotor seizures MRI: Lt medial temporal non-enhanced lesion EEG Patients with refractory extratemporal lobe epilepsy, particularly those in whom imaging examinations did not reveal any brain lesions, have a less positive prognosis after surgery than those with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy. The semiology of seizures, the functional imaging techniques Because the latter group usually presented with a clinical semiology and electrophysiology highly suggestive of mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE), epileptogenic zone resection was defined as total resection of the lesion and. Although mesial temporal lobe epilepsy has become better defined as a clinicopathologic entity that can be treated with a standard surgical approach, 2, 3 such is not the case for extratemporal lobe epilepsy syndromes. The semiology of extratemporal neocortical epilepsy is less well characterized Document Detail. Temporal lobe epilepsy semiology. MedLine CitationA history of febrile seizures (especially complex febrile seizures) is common in TLE and is frequently associated with mesial temporal sclerosis (the commonest form of TLE). Temporal lobe epilepsy caused by mesial temporal sclerosis and temporal neocortical lesions.C. Combining ictal surface-electroencephalography and seizure semiology improves patient lateralization in temporal lobe. 72.1 Temporal Lobe Seizures: Semiology and Electroencephalographic Findings.In temporal lobe epilepsy, anterior temporal interictal discharges are common.Dysplasia is particularly common in association with mesial temporal lobe pathology,42, 45 although in an adult series, anterior Medial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE) is the most frequent form of epilepsy in adulthood. It is classified as local/regional epilepsy.Due to the multiple functions of the temporal lobes the semiology of MTLE seizures is very rich and vari-able. It has been attempted to link seizure semiology to activation of different anatomical regions of the temporal lobe.The commonest pathology underlying this type of epilepsy is hippocampal sclerosis3,4, and the entity of mesial temporal lobe epilepsy with hippocampal sclerosis (MTLE with ABSTRACT. PurposeTo compare the reliability of lateralization between seizure semiology and ictal scalp EEG findings in mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE) patients, and to examine the advantage of the combined use of these two methods.

Seizure Semiology Predicts Mesial Temporal Structure Onset for MRI Lesional Temporal Lobe Epilepsy.Conclusion: TLE secondary to an MRI lesion with typical TLE seizure semiology is highly associated with mesial temporal structure onset. Auras are extremely common in patients with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy occurring in more than 90 cases and on occasion may be the only1987) emphasized the limitations of the role played by ictal semiology in infants, in determining the localization-related nature of an epileptic seizure.(aura and seizure semiology), scalp (surface) EEG, structural neuroimaging (MRI brain), nuclear imaging (interictal PET, ictal SPECT) and neuropsychological testing was not suggestive of typical mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (mTLE) but intracranial EEG showed seizure onset in the mesial SPM analysis of ictalinterictal SPECT in mesial temporal lobe epilepsy: Relationships between ictal semiology and perfusion changes. Documents. Lateralizing Value of Neuropsychological Protocols for Presurgical Assessment of Temporal Lobe Epilepsy. Temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is a chronic disorder of the nervous system characterized by recurrent, unprovoked focal seizures that originate in the temporal lobe of the brain and last about one or two minutes. TLE is the most common form of epilepsy with focal seizures. The SPECT able data for presurgical localization of the epileptogenic subtractions were segmented to show regions of hyperperfu- region, particularly in mesial temporal lobe epilepsy sion at 1 SD above the mean.Results: All patients demonstrated typical seizure semiology of MTLE.

Hippocampal sclerosis produces a clinical syndrome called mesial temporal lobe epilepsy, which begins in late childhood, then remits but reappears in adolescence or early adulthood in a refractory form. Mesial temporal lobe epilepsy defined by specific aetiologies other than hippocampal sclerosis In mTLE with other underlying pathology clinical seizure semiology and EEG findings do not differ from that observed in seizures due to HS involves the mesial temporal lobe structures.2.

Benign mTLE (bMTLE) is defined as mTLE with at least 24 months of seizure freedom with or without AEDs. It was recognized many years ago [105]. Abstract. Mesial temporal lobe epilepsy is the most common form of adult epilepsy in surgical series.MTLE was defined based on a constellation of signs and symptoms, with the characteristic seizure semiology, including viscerosensory or experiential auras, such as rising epigastric sensation Mesial temporal damage in temporal lobe epilepsy: a volumetric MRI study of the hippocampus, amygdala and parahippocampal region.Temporal lobe epilepsy: clinical semiology and age at onset.

About 25 of seizures in patients with unilateral mesial temporal lobe epilepsy could not be lateralized by scalp EEG. However, the semiology of focal seizures associated with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy has a characteristic and consistent semiology that is the mark of this common epilepsy syndrome in adulthood.
